Alaska Airlines has opened its newly remodeled lounge at Anchorage Airport, doubling the space and seating capacity. This expansion is part of the airline's Great Land Investment Plan, which involves $60 million in projects across Alaska over the next three years. The Anchorage Lounge now features an additional 2,600 square feet and can accommodate up to 140 guests.

Located in Concourse C near Gate C-1, the lounge offers views of the tarmac and provides most seats with access to power outlets. It serves a daily selection of complimentary fresh food items and premium beverages such as hand-crafted espressos and West Coast wines.

Each Alaska Airlines lounge is designed to reflect its city's character. In Anchorage, modern interiors are combined with elements inspired by Alaska's natural beauty. The lounge will also feature works by local artists capturing Alaska's essence.
